Opinions on Jemima?

[Corsu]

I think it's beautiful, biblical but not particularly common. I think people will know how to pronounce it. What do you all think?

I like it

I think of puddleduck too, as the only association. It is a very nice sounding name though, it needs a revival.

I have one . She is mostly Mimy, or Mima. We also call her Puddle-duck as that association doesn't bother me at all (although that particular Jemima isn't the best role model..!)

I love it.

I loved BP when growing up so love the reference to Jemima Puddleduck .

DH would not even entertain it when I suggested it for DD2.

I'm alternating between Puddleduck and the dolly off Playschool.

But I actually really like it.

We've used it as a middle name as all the middle names i'd picked we didn't like when she arrived. DH picked it
Her first names not very common either so it probably does sound pretentious, ah well

In the U.S. Everyone will instantly think of "Aunt Jemima." She is a character used to sell pancake syrup and mix. She's had a modern overhaul, but she was originally presented as a fat, happy, docile black slave with her hair up in a red bandana and big gold hoop earrings.
Obviously, this isn't a problem here in the UK where the first association is "puddle duck." But good to be aware, just in case.

I know a Jemima and she gets called "Jemima Vagina" at school!!
